Inside Out Library

Newton Forster ... With illustrations by E. J. Sullivan, and an introduction by David Hannay

HANNAY, David., SULLIVAN, Edmund Joseph., Marryat, Frederick · 1897 · Macmillan and Co. · 40 pictures

An 1897 Macmillan reissue of Frederick Marryat's 1832 sea novel Newton Forster, with an introduction by David Hannay and forty pen drawings by Edmund Joseph Sullivan, made for late-Victorian readers of cheap illustrated classics. The drawings are loose ink line work with hatched shadows and wide blank margins, showing Regency-dressed figures at dinner tables, in clerks' offices and on tilting ship decks, each set above an italic caption line; useful for figure grouping, interior furniture and caption-and-image layout.
